(By Richard. Abercorn.) London, Nov. 9 Sumptuary laws, as rigid as those at King Edward's court, are enforced at the fashionable res
taurants of London. At the Savoy the other night an earl and countess were refused admission to the principal dining room because they were not In evening dress. This incident raised some discussion as to whether diners should be allowed to dress as they please, and the Savoy management held a ballot among their fashionable patrons, who were asked for their opinion on this important question. Among ninety replies only one was against the evening dress rule, and the management have therefore decided to enforce the rule as rigidly as ever. Even princes will now be debarred from dining at the Savoy unless they wear the regulation evening dress. The one voter against compulsory evening dress wrote: "It is certainly a Htupid rule which would prevent a man In this democratic century from dressing as he pleases. People are more important than rules'of fashion. It is just such conventional ideas which keep up England's reputation of being a country enslaved to form." But convention in matters of dress is one of the bedrock principles of British society, and will probably last as long as society itself. Another English shrine for patriotic American pilgrims has been discovered or rather authenticated at the picturesque country town of Purleigh, Essex. It has been established, after thorough investigation, that Lawrence Washington, rector of Purleigh in the seventeenth century, was great-great-grandfather of the Father of American Independence. Armed with the fact of this relationship, the present rector of Purleigh is appealing to Americans for money toward restoring the church tower, a well-known landmark in the district. Three years ago a considerable sum was contributed by Americans for this object, and now that the connection between George Washington and. Purleigh is finally established, the rec
tor is hopeful of getting enough to
complete the work of restoration.
Anaesthesia by hypnotic suggestion has been accomplished, accidentally in
a London dental nospuai, wnere a
young woman was made unconscious by the Idea of an anaesthetic, although
the gas was not actually applied.
Ethyl chloride was the anaesthetic intended for use in this case, and the
of his favorite game bridge he retired every night before 11 o'clock. While the people of New York, Boston, Chicago and other great Ameri-
dications furnished by the reception of i the big play this season are that this J
record will be duplicated before the play is finally taken from the boards. "The Darling of the Gods ' is to be the
can cities are writhing under the exac- attraction at the Gennett the evening
tions of the Beef trust, that philan-jof November 14
thropic institution is supplying beef in all the cities of Great Britain at a price that would make the American housewife onvious.
In G: t Britain the trust has not a monopoly; it is compelled to meet the competition of Irish. English and Scotch beef raisers. The result is that the Beef trust export for the consumption of the people of Great Britain the very best beef the trust produces in America. If the trust had a monopoly of the British market it would, as it does in America, compel the consumer , to paj- extortionate prices for beef. Here, the trust, having to meet hoa-l est competition in open market, is un-i able to obtain the extortionate monopolistic prices it compels American con-! sumers to pay. The prices charged for j American beef at the Civil Service Society's stores, a great co-operative department store in London, are always
much lower than in America. These prices are the same at all the great
stores in London, and they are a trifle lower in the great cities of the prov
inces, like Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds.

Coming to the Genuett on Thursday, Nov. 28. is the great rural comedy drama, "Quincy Adams Sawyer," distinguished from all plays of its class by the absence'of any old-time features of the bucolic drama, such as an erring son, a ruined daughter or a mortgage to be lifted. This play claims to be a genuine pieces of rural life made up of comedy and pathos, free from all melodramatic effects, and as such it finds favor everywhere. In fact, its success has been the subject of com-

the screw to break the capsule and lib
erate the gas was turned. Apparently the anaesthetic did its work, five teeth were extracted, and the patient awoke without having felt anything of the operation. It was afterward found that the capsule had never been broken. The girl must have passed into insensibility from the mental impression that an anaesthetic was about to be applied. In other words, she was hypnotized into unconsciousness. In another case of hypnotic anaesthesia at the same hospital ethyl chloride was sprayed on to the gums to freeze them into insensibilitj The tooth was extracted without pain, but It was afterward found that a gag placed in the mouth had screened the gums from the anaesthetic. King Edward is never so thoroughly at home anywhere as at Newmarket, where he has been spending the October race week. In the metropolis of racing he is regarded as a simple sportsman, and royal state is entirely dispensed with. His Majesty often strolls alone about the streets, free from the kind of annoyance he suffered from at (for instance) Marienbad where he was mobbed by inquisitive strangers. Every morning the King rode out on his cab to the historic heath to watch the strings of horses exercising. The afternoon was spent on the course, either in the Jockey Club stand or in the paddock, and in the evening he
dined with some of his sporting friends. After a quiet rubber or two
"At Cripple Creek." E. J. Carpenter has in Hal Reid's
"At Cripple Creek," in every sense an idyl of the Rocky mountains. It is a
simple story of Western life told in its author's best style and Is a dramatic gem of great power and beauty. Its pathos moves the heart with its ten
der emotion and there are a number of amusing comedy scenes interspersed through the play that serve to brighten the intense situations upon which the drama is founded. The types of characters are true to the locality the rearing slopes of Colorado's lofty peaks. Its men and women move in an atmosphere of true nobility the nobility of honest purpose, courage and sympathy. Joe Mayfleld, the gold miner, whose heart is big enough to shield the orphan and protect the weak and down trodden, whose charity is a sermon to mankind, is the leading character of the play, and Mr. Reid has given the stage a type of American of which his countrymen may well be proud. This play will be presented at the Gennett next Tuesday night. "The Darling of the Gods." The immense success achieved oy "The Darling of the Gods." David Belasco's drama of old Japan, can oe very well estimated by a glance at the figures showing its record of performances. In the United States it has been played almost contimiously more than 1.000 times. The number of times it has been seen in Europe and Australia aggregate another 500. In-
"A Cowboy's Girl." "A Cowboy's Girl," which comes to the Gennett next Wednesday night, produces some of the greatest effects ever produced on the stage. At the close of the first act a street in a small western town Is seen in the glow of the sunset. The clouds gather in the sky. You hear the wind coming and suddenly the entire stage is enveloped in dust and sand, the wind increasing and increasing until it blows a veritable tornado, the air filled with flying sand. In the third act you see two thousand head of cattle, Wild an-1 frenzied, dash across the stage in a fearful stampede. It takes twelve men and eight electric arcs to work this effect.
